The Samsonowich will destroy breakfast as we know it
Why would someone create a sandwich of waffles and danish? If I’m remembering the story correctly, I’ll tell you why.
We went and tried one of McDonald’s new healthier options, a Southwest Salad. We weren’t fans of the BBQ sauce on the salad, but have since heard other reviews that place the salad in higher esteem. Maybe the restaurant we went to was just phoning it in.
Anyway, we thought it would be funny to create a salad of cheeseburgers. It was. We didn’t eat that though.
Twitter got rolling on things and before you know it CJSR’s Makin’ Whoopee is talking about the “Samsonowich,” a breakfast delicacy made of waffles and danish. With whipped cream or syrup to top it off.
Fast-forward to Saturday, and our attempt at a live, late-night, Edmonton talk show, and you’ve got a need to create this monstrosity of breakfast, in a cooking segment.
You know what? It was actually pretty good.
We used Eva Sweet (vanilla) waffles, so we started with the best waffles any of us had ever had. I picked up some danish (It has to be cherry!) at Sobeys, whipped up the cream myself, and put it all together live on the air.
It’s likely not a healthy option to start your day, but damn if it isn’t a delicious, messy way to kick things off.

Saturday Night with Samsonow is continually looping on our livestream.com account. We didn’t know it would do that, but it’s kind of cool.
If you watch, just pretend the parts without sound are our attempt at an artsy film school submission.
Saturday Night with Samsonow
Because we never give ourselves enough work to do we’re attempting a live talk show.
Tonight. 9pm.
Come right back here. You might have to refresh this page (or the main page if that’s what you’re on) to get the live stream to kick in.
Tonight’s guest is local social media darling Adam Rozenhart. Plus, we’ve got Pepe Duenes as our band. We’ll also be crank-calling an actual local media celebritity. And eating the long-rumoured Samsonowich.
See you then!
(Although, we won’t be able to see you.)
If the website is hiccuping at all, you can try watching at our livestream.com account too.
